French local elections hold second round of voting with results for municipal mayoral races across the country
France held the second round of municipal elections on Sunday, with results determining mayors in cities across the country. The National Rally won at least 50 mayoral races and increased its number of councillors significantly, while also falling short in key targets like Marseille. Centrist and mainstream left candidates performed better than expected in major cities, particularly when they avoided alliances with the far-left La France Insoumise party.
